From 12 volt conversion for /2 to better than stock replacement parts for your late model "R" or "K", we've got you covered. Specialty parts for 'hardening' the charging and ignition systems for world-travelling Airhead GS's. Riders like Bob Higdon, Dr. Gregory Frazier, Grant Johnson and hundreds of others depend on Motorrad Elektrik components as they wander the globe.
Our Omega system has solved the charging problems for 1970-95 Boxers with 450 Watts Output, and our Nippon Denso starter is the perfect cure for Valeo syndrome."
There is a UK version of the Continental website in English here, with plenty of excellent info on tires in general, specs and information. Recommended
Munich Motorcycles, Perth, Australia, (08 9317 3317 fax 089317 3359) will take your original PARALEVER SHAFT and fit new U-Joint's with grease nipples for Aus$150 per u-joint. Turn around time is a week or less once they receive your shaft. Since the R100GS Paralever shaft u-joints seem to last at most about 40,000 miles, this is a service to keep in mind. With the grease nipple, regularly greased, you should be able to at least double the u-joint life. Email mun...@wantree.com.au using the subject 'Referred by Horizons Unlimited website'.
One of the largest suppliers of used BMW Boxer parts and very good to deal with.
